Ryan Adams has locked in a special Splendour In The Grass sideshow at the Sydney Opera House this July.

The American songwriter’s return to Australia this winter will see him perform a career-spanning solo show, from his breakthrough with 2000’s Heartbreaker to last year’s self-titled release. News of the Opera House date follows the earlier announcement of an Enmore Theatre performance.

Ryan Adams will play the Concert Hall, Sydney Opera House on Tuesday July 21. Tickets go on sale 9am Friday May 15. He’ll also be at the Enmore Theatre on Thursday July 23.
